How can someone claim to be a capitalist if they’re still eating every day?

I still find it funny that Steve Ballmer called Linux communism lmao

thats about what i thought itd be like lmao thanks for the reply

Sometimes reality really is stranger than fiction. Pavlov VR has a take on this city that my friend and I play on a lot. I always wondered how people travel here. Cool post

What I did to learn was basically trying to mimic my Windows install in terms of programs and features. I installed games I played often onto Linux and learned basic software installation and Proton by doing that, then I installed some productivity apps (mostly their Linux equivalents, not the exact ones) and learned to use those, and then did some customizing. Not everything works, at least well (VR for example), so I dual-boot still

I’d also recommend pulling up the terminal to do some basic stuff to get used to it, like using sudo apt install for some select programs, ls and cd for file navigation, etc. You won’t need the terminal for daily use in mist distros, but it’ll be important sometimes

Also, if you choose Mint like I shill for recommend, searching the forum has proven useful in my experience

The Nissan Leaf seems to be the only one worth being concerned about. Don’t quote me on this but I remember reading the old ones (like 2011ish to around 2016-17) had poor airflow to cool the battery so they lost capacity quicker

It seems simple enough, but what constitues “authoritarian” or even “communist” always changes from person-to-person

Idk about the porn, but for the tankie thing, it’s probably because it’s just a political insult that doesn’t have any real meaning like “libshit”, “demonrat”, etc so enforcement is very subjective

I’m also not on dbzer0 so take my comment with a grain of salt

I have a 6800 XT, is there something I have to enable somewhere? I could’ve sworn it was missing because h264/265 had licensing weirdness going on but idk

I probably sbould’ve specified H.264/H.265, unless I’m missing something?

Not to knock on your point but the AMD drivers on Linux don’t support hardware video encoding unfortunately, so technically it’s not full-featured

I never understood this either. “Why are users of an aggressively open-source service so adamant about using open-source software?” Especially when Lemmy’s been around for years, so yeah it’s cultivated a majority Linux userbase.

wasn’t linus’s issue a rare packaging issue or something that happened and was fixed within a few days’ period?

Ubuntu, either version 12.04 or 12.10 when I got my first computer, a Chromebook, in Christmas 2013 when I was 10. I hated how Chrome OS didn’t support anything so I found a way to put Ubuntu on it and messed around with Blender and Minecraft. Despite this early start, I proceeded to do nothing productive with it, broke it out of frustration, and now I’m 20 and struggling with Arch lmao

is that a whole petabyte of swap???
